The public feedback phase of the Village's Comprehensive Plan update continues, with a public forum on Wednesday, October 28 in the Council Chambers at Village Hall, 31 S. Prospect St., from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. The Village's consultant team, Ginkgo Planning and Design, Inc., will facilitate the forum. Models, drawings, presentations, and lively discussions will be included, as the evening focuses on "Big Ideas" like: What are the major assets of Roselle that should be preserved and strengthened? What is missing in Roselle today? What are the three biggest challenges for the future? What would you like Roselle to be known for in the Chicago Region?
All residents and business owners are invited to participate in this opportunity to help craft a bold plan for the future of Roselle that captures the vision of the community and inspires action. Can't make the forum but still want to provide input? Visit the Ideas page on the Comprehensive Plan Update website to participate.
